Empowerment Zone Collective hosts multi-day STEAM workshops throughout the year. These workshops are developed by our team to teach hands-on STEAM concepts and expose youth to what STEAM careers use these concepts. This exposure educates students and gives them the confidence that someone like them can excel in a STEAM focused career.
